Acts 20:3 (KJV)
And there abode three months. And when the Jews laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria, he purposed to return through Macedonia.
Acts 9:23-24 (KJV)
And after that many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him:
But their laying await was known of Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him.
Acts 13:50 (KJV)
But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their coasts.
Acts 23:12-15 (KJV)
And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul.
And they were more than forty which had made this conspiracy.
And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves under a great curse, that we will eat nothing until we have slain Paul.
Now therefore ye with the council signify to the chief captain that he bring him down unto you to morrow, as though ye would enquire something more perfectly concerning him: and we, or ever he come near, are ready to kill him.
Acts 25:3 (KJV)
And desired favour against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him.
How often Paul faced the problem of Jews laying wait, attempting to kill him! Yet he continued to venture into new fields, planting new churches and winning other souls. He was forced to flee on many occasions, but he was never compelled to quit.
